Sophie revealed cast aren't allowed to pre-drink in the way they used to due to strict rules

Nathan Henry, 23, and Sophie Kasaei, 27, revealed that the cast film for five week straight and aren't allowed to leave the Geordie house unless they work or go out clubbing.

Nathan said: “You're allowed one phone call every three days – like prison.

“If I had a massive argument with Sophie, the first thing I'd do is get my phone, text my friends and bitch about them. So not having phones, it forces you to confront them and sort it out.”

Sophie told The Sun's Bizarre column that viewers will be surprised to know that cast members hardly ever stay in the club for more than two hours and refrain from knocking back drinks to get "mortal."

Nathan Henry likened the reality show to being in prison or the Big Brother house

She insisted makers of the show have increased how much is controlled since the first episode to make it safer for them.

Producers even give them bottles of water and make them crumpets in the morning.

She said: “It's a lot more controlled than it used to be.

“We have producers putting us to bed and giving us bottles of water. So it's not like no one is looked after – we've got to look after each other but there are people there that are like 'right come on guys, everyone bed now. Get to bed, fast asleep'.
